Who said that? Jurassic park and scream are in my top 5 films!

As far as a movie that I like but feel is way overrated... Braindead. I dug the movie, I own it and have watched it plenty of times, but I feel it gets a wee bit too much praise.

It seems like this is a major issue as far as enjoyment of a film goes. I don't think it really has any bearing on how I feel about a film UNLESS that hype comes with a spoiler that ruins the ending.

That is true, hype definitly become a factor. I was expecting much better then what I got which I thought was an ok film, not horrible in any means but didn't stand out as a masterpiece for me.

Another huge factor is that watching this movies 20/30 years after its release they seem cliche thanks to the thousands of cookie-cutter movies that used many of the movies ideas. Then, even though the movie pioneered some techniques and came out before these other movies, they seem played out because you have seen them a hundred times in latter movies.

I can understand that one too. Halloween was probably the first slasher I saw and loving it so much then probably impacts how I feel about it now quite a bit.

I'm not a real big fan of The original Dawn of the Dead. Also, I haven't been found of any movies pre 1965, they just seem too dated and lame to me. Maybe it's because I'm still fairly young...I'm 28.
